I must start somewhere.
Lately I've entertained a nagging sense that not facing my fears...even the mundane ones...is holding me back.
Eleanor Roosevelt said, "Life must be lived and curiosity kept alive. One must never, for whatever reason, turn his back on life." I am ashamed to admit that I have forsaken living in so many ways in the last six years, I sometimes feel skeptical that I'll ever embrace it again with anything resembling zest or vigor.
Unless....
I can allow myself to start small. Facing one fear a day--considering no fear too small as long as it is not insignificant--is my goal.
Today's fear to face: starting this blog.
Feeling as I prepare to publish post: doubt intertwined with excitement.
